Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation's research and I'd be so grateful for your support.

Last year my brother unexpectedly and tragically passed away from a heart attack at the age of 33. 

All of us who knew David were devastated by this sudden gap in our lives; this bright, boisterous colourful guy who meant so very much to us in very many different ways was taken away from us at a point of his life where we were seeing the best of him.

I wanted to do something to raise money for a charity that is helping to tackle heart conditions; for both prevention and aftercare of those affected by the conditions that stole my brother from us all far too early.

So I'm planning to do all the WOLF runs for 2017; there is one for each season (I am realllllly not looking forward to the Winter one) and you can find a link to the events & photos of previous races here:

Essentially it's described as "10k off-road run featuring a series of man-made and natural obstacles located throughout the course."  So that's a 6 mile cross country race with obstacles with anyone who wishes to join me in memory of David (contact me if interested/crazy).

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures and progress the fight to reduce stories similar to ours happening to families and friends around the world.

Every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
